gl)c 2cffcrsonian. 4 THURSDAY, JUKE 23, 18C0. FOR PRESIDENT, Abraham Lincoln, OF ILLINOIS. FOR VICP. PRESIDENT, Hannibal Hamlin, OF MAINE. FOR GOVERNOR Hon. Andrew G. Curtail, OF CENTER COUNTY. SST Tbe Stroudsburg Cornet Band have beeo engaged to furnish the mrndc for the celebration of the 4th of July, at Bufihkill, Pike county, Pa. Col. S."C. Burnet, of this place, has consented to be present and dolitcr the oration ZF The Democracy havo done it.- Thoy have ripped themselves up from stein (o stem in regular Japeneso style. The chief difference if, however, that the of the Janeneso eaves their - -rr'-e r property from conOscation, but tho rip ping up which the harmonious Dcmoera oy hsve just dono to thcmrclvcs, utterly and irretrievably confiscates all tho sour ces of the publio plunder that they have been fattening upon, and reveling in for tho last eight years. The Charleston Convention which ad journed to meet nt Baltimore on the ISth of June, met according to adjournment, and after five dayeof bitterquurrelingover the "irropre.'sible conflict," 125 Delegates withdrew? This occurred in consequeuoc of the Douglas wing of tho Convention refusing to admit thoso delegates into the Baltimore Convention who saw proper to withdraw from the Charleston Conven tion. After which tbe Douglas portion of the Convention put in nomination the following ticket : For President, STEPHEN A. DOUGLAS, of Illinois For Vice President, BEN J. P1TZ PATRICK, of Alabama Fitzpatrick concluded he could not run on this ticket and accordingly declined the proffered honor, whereupon the National Democratic Committee substituted Her- scbcl V. Johnson, of Georgia. Tho Administration wing of the Dem ocracy have nominated the following tick et : For President, J. C. BRECKINRIDGE, of Kentucky. For Vice President, JOSEPH LANE, of Oregon. Messrs. Breckinridge and Lane accepts the positions assigned them on the ticket, aud declare that their only duty to the country and the Democracy demands that they should do so. Such is tbe composi tion of the tickets presented by the har monious Democracy, and surely from this great" variety the most fastidious Demo crat ought to satisfy himself. Tbe only consolation wo bavo to offer cur Demo cratic friends in this their great trouble is, that it will make no difference which aide of the Democratic Hulk they jump upon, for they both will lead to precisely the same conclusion, which ia. merited and overwhelming defeat. Wc must say, however, that we are rather sorry that they aro split asunder, for in this canvass we desired to have tbem united upon some man, for we have loug been of the opinion that the country ia sick and tired of what "t3 called Democracy, and for this reason wo wished to measure their Btrength fairly and fquarely bj tbe Re publican doctriDo. As it is tho battle is ended before it is begun. Lincoln, from present indications will be the next Pres ident without a struggle for it. ' m m I.

The Lincoln Coat of Arms. A gentleman of this oity, who reached borne from the Upper Mitsiesippi, slates that laet week tbe boat on which Ee was a passenger, the Doctor Kane, passed an eDormous raft, slowly floating down tbe stream, on whioh appeared to bo lodged about twenty hands, "jolly raftatneo' no doubt. An immense staff, Qfty feet high, shot up from the middle of the raft, from which floated the American colors. Im mediately on tbo bow of the raft was planted a huge rail, about twenty feet bigb, near tbe top of which appeared an sxo and maul, crossed, forming an excel lent representation of tho Lincoln Coat OF ARMS. This fiatboat, its men and de vices were loudly cheered along the shore and by passing boats. St. Louis Democrat. The Old Tenth Legion. Wc believe it ia time that wo Bhould move for a thorough organization of the Republican party of tho fivo counties composing the 13th Congressional Dis trict Northampton, Carbon, Monroe, Pike and Wayne. Wo are not prepared sav tLat wo should bo in any particular hurry about tbo nomination oi canuiuuiue for Connre8H aud btato benato, uuc we do believe there should be a general tuect- inir of the people of each county, Bay at Stroudsburg, when the state of the party could bo duly considered, and such action tnken as might be deemed expedient. Wo, therefore, respecttully propose, tor the consideration of our friend of North ampton, Monroe, Pike and Wayue, that a grand mass meeting be held at otrouds burg, Monroe County, on Tuesday, tho 24th day of July next, and to secure cm inent speakers from abroad to address the meeting. Whilst we might Dot be ready on said day to make our nominations, we do tbink it is not too soon to begin tho good worK of organization and spreadiug the truth amouir the people. If wc can only have the peoplo thoroughly understand our principles, victory is certain, even in the "Old Tenth Logion." And Stroudsburg. we believe, is iust the dace the most central to start the ball rolling. Will tho Iloncsdale Democrat, the Stroudsburg Jcjfersonian. and the Easton lYmcs, Dee Press, Journal and Bcoback- tcr give ub their views? ysiauch Uuunc (jrarctle j&gfWe most heartily agree that, the Republican party ought to be thoroughly organized in this District, and that tooae coon as practicable. Perhaps the time above indicated is as good as any that can be fixed upon. We of course will not ob joct to having tho rallying point a Stroudsburg. We hope to hear from our cotemporaries of this District at an early date, on this subject. The World, Is the title of a new daily paper estab lished in New York, two or three num bcrs of whioh have been sent us. lustead of making any comments of our own, we prefer to copy tho folldwiug notico of the enterprise, from tbe National Iutellcgen cer. We learn that the paper has a large capital, and that experincod and able men will conduct it. Mr. Cummin S, for merly of the Philadelphia Evening Bulle tin, is one of the publishers. Mr. J. R. Spaalding, long and favorably known from his .connexion with the Courier and Enquirer, is chief editor. Richard Grant White, tho accomplished Shakspearcan scholar, ia placed at the head of tbe liter ary department. Mr. Manton M. Mar ble, who has been connected with the Boston Journal, tho Traveler aud the New York Post, occupies the chair of as sistant editor. Defalcations A Parallel to 1840. Defalcations under tbe present admin istration are becoming as common as thoy were under Van Buren. The last dis covered swindle is that of T. C. Hunt, re ceiver of publio money at Natchitoches, La., who is a defaulter to the government forS3.rj,000. It was so in 1840. The campaign opened io the same way. Char ges of corruption and extravagance made against the then existing administration were sustained by successive disclosures of defalcations on the part of the Govern ment officials. The people became alarm ed at the extent of these swindles, and swept from power the false Democracy in whose name they had been perpetrated. They mode an honet, straight forward old Pioneer of tho West neither politi cian President of the United States, ta king him from obscurity and making Lire tbo instrument and the representative of their power. In twenty years we are go ing tbe same routine. Harrisburg Tele graph. Col. Curtin's Prospects. The editor of the Clearfield Hajtsmaris Journal, who has just returned from a tour, through the western part of the State, expresses the opinion that Col. Curtin's prospects of election ore of the most flatteriug character, if the condition of affairs in that section can be taken as an index to the remainder. In Went moreland county, where Gen. Foster, the Democratic candidate, resides, he will re ceive the full party vote, as ho will alo m tbe balance of the Congressional dis trict to which that county is attached. Wc are ever ready to give Gen. Foster all tho crodit he deserves as a man and citizen; but must insist on it that his friend who regard him as an unusually popular candidate, are greatly mistaken; nor will be surprised to bear of him be ing beaten from 15,000 to 20,000 west of tho Alleghenies. This, however, should not deter the friends of Col. Curtin from keeping constantly at work, and making every honorable exertion to give him t largo vote in the eastern part of the State On the other hand, let it encourage eve ry one to "lay bis shoulder to the wheel" and make the victory tho more decisive aud brilliant, and by doing so seouro tbe State for Lincoln and Hamlin in Novem ber. Death of Hon. John Schwartz. Washington, Jane 21. Hon. Jobn Schwartz, member of Congress from the Eighth District of Pennsylvania, died here last night. His death will bo an nounced in the House to-day. Ilia re mains will be taken to Reading for inter ment. A boy, Charles Byers, while carrying loousta in bis hat, in Wetzel oounty, Vir- ginir, recently, was stung on toe bead, and died from tho effects of the injury. OTlt is stated that John Morrissey, tbe pugilist, is to go immediately into training with a view of fighting Heenan, in Au2ut. He has left New York, and expresses his determination to vanxuish the champion of tho world. National Democratic Conventidih Tho adjourned Convention of tbo De mocracy re-assemblod at Baltimore on tho 18th nst.. at 12 J!kl. Tbo president, Caleb Cushing, of Mass., called the Con vention to order, and made a oriel ad dress, closing with a recapitulation of the stato of tho business beforo the Conven- ion. regarded Bimply as an adjourned body. Hereupon a wrangle commenced, relative to the re-admis6ion of the dele- pates from seven or eight Southern States w in had seceded Iroin tne convention when in session. This continued through out tho day, showing a bad state of foel- ing, and the existence of strong sectional antagonism between tho North and the - South. Various motions, counter mo tions, suggestions, &o., were offered, only to be smothered or withdrawn, and thus tbe wrangling went on for seven or eight long hours. On Tuesday, the Convention re-assem bled. As toon as order could bo obtain ed, Mr. Church, of New York, asked con Bent to mako a proposition to the conven tion calculated to harmonize tbo pending motionB and to arrange in a friendly man ner the question of tho admmsion of dele gates. There were cries ot "bear uim,' ana unanimous consent was given. Mr. Church then stated tuat an ar rangement had been entered to withdraw Mr. Gilmoro's amendment and tho latter portion of his own, bo that the question of seats bo simply roterrod to a commit, tee without conditions. Tkirt r.ronosition was finally carried - i -4- and a recers was taken until 5 P. M. Tho cutting off tho "test oath" was a do cided victory over the Douglas men, who wero stroncly in favor of it, and who nronosed it with the view of tying the bands of his enemies in tho South, or compelling thorn to leave the Convention Its rejection beads Douglas off at both points, and places the Little Giaut, in a position which renders his defeat cither in tbo Convention or at too polls a "lore gone conclusion." The Convention re-assembled in th evening, but did nothing in the way 0 business. It became pretty evident on Tuesday eveuiug that a new shuffle and cui of the cards when m progress, tho ob ject of which was the turning up a Jack whose name is not Douglas. The New York delegation is the power whioh is re lied upon to slaughter the Little Giant They profess to support Douglas, but they really mean to nominate Gov. beymour if thoy can bring it about. But the earn est friends of Douglas are not easily eub ducd. When their favorite is slaughter ed, they will turn tho "tables, and "lay out" Seymour. Each faction is strou enough to whip the other, and the pros nect for a mutual flopinc is very lmun nent, and "most devoutly to be wished Personal alteroations among the dele gates were quite frequent, promising a crop of duels. Messrs. Hooper and tiindma of Arkansas got into a quarrel on Tues day evening, which is to be settled wit pistols, and a timilar difficulty is on th tapis, for adjustment with powder and . 1 "IT' ball, between a couple or Virginians. On Wednesday, a fight took place bo tween Messrs. Whiteloy and Townsend delegates from Delaware. 1S0 duel aonrehended in conseaueuce. The fra r i cas occurred at a hotel. The Convention on Wednesday d nothing down to 5 P. M. It was wait ing for the report of tho Committee on Credentials. On Thursday the Convention received three reports from its Committee on Cre dentials that of tho majority favoring in the main, the newly-chosen or Dougla delegates from the Cotton States, in place of the bolters at Charleston. Ihere wa a break-down, with about the usual num ber of fights, but no decisive action th New-Yorkers again asking and carryin an adjournment over to Friday morning, in order that they might cousult as to the course they should pursue. In the evening, they determined, by a majority of 41 to 27, to go for the report of tho Committee which admit3 the Douglas del egations from Louisiana and Alabama, aud half the Douglas men from Georgia. On Friday the explosion happened, and tho Democratic party is hopelessly and irreconcilably broken in pieces. The Douglass men would not yield to tbe de mands of the South, lho Minority re port from tho Committee on Credentials, which gives the seceders their scats, was rejected by a vote of 150 to 100. The vote on the admission of the Doug las delegatus from Louisiana is 153 yeas to US nays. Tho Convention accepted tho report of tbe majority of tho Committee on Creden tials, excepting so far as relates to Geor gia. Adjourned to 5 o'clock, The evening's session was Epent in con fessions, explanations, depreoations, im precations, and jeremiads over the last final great catastrophe. The Conven tion was addressed in one strain or an other by some fifteen delegates from all quarters. Virginia opened the ball by tho withdrawal of 12s of her electoral votes. North Carolina followed with 8 of her electoral votes. Tennessee went out with fl votes; California with 4; Mas sachusetts with 8. Maryland went with an undefined portion, and even tho Chair man, Gen'l Cushing, withdrew disgusted with the open advocacy of tho Slave trade. Stephon A Douglas was nominated for President, and Senator Fitzpatrick, for Vice President. Above wc give an insight into the pro ceedings of the Baltimore Convention. The Seceders Convention. Tbe seceders organized on Saturday by electing Caleb Cushing Permanent Chairman. John C. Brcokinridge was nominated on tbe second ballot. Gen. Joseph Lane, of Oregon, was unanimous ly nominated for Vice President on the let ballot. The platform adopted by the seceders was tbo one reported by tbe mi- noniy ac unarieston. 1 "'I say, Jobn, where did you get that rogue's bat?'

Tbe National Democratic Uonvention has at length split its party into two n 1 and intensely hoBtile factions, and a nominated two antagonist tiokets, as va naa ollows : 1. For President STEPHEN A.

Next to Caleb Cushing and Jeff. Davis, this is as good a ticket to run against as they could have made if the selection had been confided to their own hands. Wo predict that Douglas and Fitzpatrick will beat it in the popular vote of the Slave States, and run it out of sight in tho Free States.
